Critical resource curation

The Digital Humanities pedagogic data, hosted as a website at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IIT Gandhinagar), is curated out of course-related contributions from 2017-2024. The web hub was conceptualised by a course group that had pursued a Special Topics Course, "Introduction to Digital Humanities" in 2018. The website has grown since 2018 and houses projects from 2017 to 2024. The web hub contains 193 submissions from the students enrolled across three courses entitled Digital Cultures and New Media; Storytelling for the Digital Era; and Special Topics course on Introduction to Digital Humanities. These data resources on the website can be leveraged by researchers working in diverse fields such as digital studies, cultural studies, and linguistic studies with a special focus on India and South Asia. Therefore, the website is symptomatic of the rich critical resources and possibilities that Indian digital media/humanities scholars, researchers, and media practitioners may offer to the world. Furthermore, the existing data paper presents and describes the process of curating the critical resources in the field of digital studies on a website. The website will also be instrumental in guiding the learners of digital curation by exposing them to an extensive range of projects housed on the website.
